Do you have a video where you use a 4-20mA output on the PLC to vary the speed of a VFD?

new to the channel,but learning alot as im very new to the automation world.enjoyed the video very informative,wanted to ask do you have any video's on the siemens g120x vfd

Can you do a video explaining a path splicing failed to splice the path pf525

[@АндрейСидоров-ц3ж]

Thank you for your video. But why you didn't show how to add a converter?

[@SolisPLC]

What do you mean to add a converter? The wiring of the drive?

[@АндрейСидоров-ц3ж]

@@SolisPLC no in RSLogix 5000.

[@SolisPLC]

@@АндрейСидоров-ц3ж Sorry about that. The video was already long, so I left out certain parts. I'll try to step through the process in a separate video.

May I know in about Kinetix servo drive how to measure voltage, Ampere from Ethearnet communicate and get see in Hmi

[@agripp36]

Unclear about what you did at 14:30. The PF1 output. How did that tag get there? How did you know to use that one? Is PF1 a start or stop? Thanks

[@ravindradesai5007]

Hello sir nice video can you please tell me the (PLC 5, RS Logic) VFD control via DH + Communication

[@gregarkwright3960]

In the very end of the video, the green button is pressed. The plc receives this input. Then, the ethernet wire energizes the VFD? Is that how it works?

[@SolisPLC]

That's correct Greg.

[@gregarkwright3960]

@@SolisPLC Thanks for your assistance. I still don't understand completely, but I need to keep on studying. I need to continue and one day I will get it

[@stephengibbon2141]

This logic has created a race condition. If the RPI times out between your start and stop branch it means a packet will be sent to the drive asking to start and stop together. The next packet should just be a start but the drive is already locked up until the start is cycled. Nice video though!

[@BieuHoangDinh]

Thanks Sir. Great video. I have Problem. I want to config IP address for PowerFlex 523 (25A-D017N114~~~7.5kW).. But on keypad i don't see show Parameter (C128/C129,C130,C131,C132/C133,C134,C135,C136). I had setting C169=1 (Network opt). Please help me. Many thanks.

[@abdullrahimjajeh8572]

Does the VFD need to be tuned like the servos?

[@stevekesler5928]

Great video! - What make/model motor are you using in the video?

[@SolisPLC]

Hey Steve, it's a "25B-V2P5N104 " Powerflex.

[@abdullrahimjajeh8572]

@@SolisPLC does the drive needs its own AB motor?

[@darryladams5644]

Why did you hard wire? I did mine the same way without hard wiring push buttons and it still starts and stops the vfd and motor. Are you just showing us two different ways to accomplish the same results? Is there a reason why you did it this way?

[@SolisPLC]

Yes, just to showcase the specific start/stop IO. In some facilities they still use those, but it's absolutely unnecessary if you're doing it over EtherNet in my opinion.

[@darryladams5644]

Ahh makes perfect sense. Thank you for explaining!@@SolisPLC

[@DerekPalisoc-lg6gd]

could you start and stop the VFD via PLC and not having external start and stop button? appreciate your response. thanks

[@SolisPLC]

Yes, you can set the drive parameters so that it only starts and stops via PLC logic.

[@nukeelda]

What kind of trainer do you use and did you have to buy studio 5000 ? Great videos keep it up !!!!

[@SolisPLC]

I built my own trainer; it's mostly an arrangement of components I purchased separately. I have a license through the projects I work on. It is fairly expensive.

[@nukeelda]

@@SolisPLC yeah I know it is expensive .I think you can use workbench instead 5000

[@raulh802]

Hello great info , this setup is on Studio 5000 ? Can someone run 525 via rs logix 5000 using messaging? If so do you have a video on that ?

[@SolisPLC]

Yes, that's definitely possible. At this time, I don't have a video on that, but I'll plan to add it to my list.

[@gustavotorresberra5178]

Good evening Vlad, what SPECIFIC model is that PowerFlex 525 VFD?

[@SolisPLC]

25B-V2P5N104

[@gregarkwright3960]

There is a coil inside the VFD correct? And when it gets energized it closes the contacts which sends power out to the motor. So, is the ethernet wire energizing the coil? Is it power of Ethernet type wire?

[@SolisPLC]

Hi Greg, not exactly. The EtherNet commands go to a board on the drive. This board receives the signal and will use a chip that is on the board to toggle the coil. There is no power over ethernet and it's not the direct signal over that wire that is switching the drive.

[@toddpreisler8963]

I have seen that I've had to branch a Start and Run Forward together in order to get the drive the run. How did it do with merely the start?

[@SolisPLC]

That's a good point. I looked through my previous code within the program and it included an FWD/REV flip-flop for that particular drive. In other words, it was already enabled on FWD elsewhere. Sorry about the confusion.

[@RahulGupta-yl7gf]

How can we change the standard function of a VFD terminal using parameters only. Eg, making a moter to rotate in reverse direction by giving the command to the forward terminal (02). I'm using powerflex 525 VFD. Ps interchange of wire connection is not the option it has to be done by changing some parameters only. Please help!

[@megavergatario1]

what control logix version I need to make this what if I got an older version ?

[@SolisPLC]

Hey Erik, to set it up this way, you need Studio 5000 v 21+. A similar setup is possible on RSLogix 5000, but the layout would be slightly different.

[@jcollier3212]

How do you reverse a insert request to make the logic take the object automatically

[@yi9164]

Hi there, would you be able to do a tutorial on setting up PID (exlclusive and trim) tutorial on your Udemy powerflex course please?

[@SolisPLC]

Just a general PID or one for the drive? What would be the feedback loop for the PID? I'd probably need an encoder for that. I may consider doing a video on that in the future.

[@yi9164]

@@SolisPLC pid for the drive would be great. would you be able to demonstrate both the exclusive control and trim control and the difference between using general pid or drive etc....? cheers

[@joew4202]

Vlad, how do I change speed of the drive over Ethernet? Somehow the controls engineer o work with gets into the parameter on the drive and increases/decreases speed. When I look at parameters the output frequency is always grayed out and I can’t change it

[@SolisPLC]

The parameter should be the right approach. I suspect that it's either nested into an AOI or it's being aliased elsewhere. Can you send me the program or a few screenshot to [e-mail]? I'll try to see what's wrong in your specific case.

[@stephengibbon2141]

You need to look at the command frequency. The output frequency is what the drive is actually running at.

[@joew4202]

@@stephengibbon2141 I was trying to change the speed in the controller tags. I needed to change the speed in the actual logic for it to work
